Chapter 147: Wild Imagination
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Alright, I took it, so what?” Zhang Xiqing snatched the photos back. “My cousin came to pick me up on the registration day. My family wanted to see how everything went, so they asked him to bring a camera to take pictures. On the way back, I saw you getting into a man’s car at the gate, so I took pictures of you!”
“Miss Zhang, it’s amusing how your mind works. When I go out with a camera, I will take pictures of the flowers, the scenery, and the people I’m with, but I’ll never take pictures of some random strangers on the streets.” Jiang Yao smiled and asked, “Miss Zhang, do you know the man who spoke to me in the photo?”
“Of course, not! Why would I befriend someone so disgusting!” Zhang Xiqing quickly disputed as she sensed that Jiang Yao was about to do something cunning.
“If you don’t know him, why are you so certain that he is my sugar daddy? I thought you knew him since you were confident, perhaps even knowing the ladies whom the man is dating!” Jiang Yao smirked. She was waiting for Zhang Xiqing to say she didn’t know Zhou Weiqi. She figured that no matter how influential Zhang Xiqing was, she couldn’t possibly know Zhou Weiqi who stayed in Jindo all year round.
“Oh yes, that sounds plausible. Miss Zhang, if you don’t know the man, how can you be so convinced that Miss Jiang Yao has that kind of relationship with the man in the photo?” the director of the Academic Affairs Office added, seeing how the scene twisted and unfolded beyond his anticipation. He deduced that the matter was not as Zhang Xiqing had accused as he saw how calm Jiang Yao was. “Although Jiang Yao can be seen getting into the man’s car in the photo, they behaved appropriately. Their actions do not seem to be intimate and over-friendly. Is this how you’ve verified their relationship?”

In an instant, Jiang Yao realized that the director was taking her side.
“Miss Zhang, your cousin came to pick you up on the registration day, so why can’t I have friends or relatives sending me here? If you don’t know the man who was with me, how did you come to the conclusion that I’m his sugar baby? How can you be so sure that your speculation is absolutely correct? Is it because of the value of the sports car? Or is this from your wild imagination?” Jiang Yao grinned. “For your information, there are a lot of fancy cars in the world, and this is not the most expensive one that I’ve ridden in!”
The more boisterous Jiang Yao’s laugh was, the more afraid Zhang Xiqing became. She slowly felt that her action of accusing Jiang Yao based on the photos might be a little too reckless.
“So what? Looks like you have a few sugar daddies, do you think it’s worth showing off?” Hu Yuan began to feel nervous as she watched Zhang Xiqing’s sudden change of expression. She was afraid that Zhang Xiqing would vent all of her frustration on her when this matter went haywire, so she quickly ridiculed Jiang Yao with all her might.
“I have a sugar daddy simply because I got into a fancy car?” Jiang Yao huffed in amusement. “A taxi is worth about tens of thousands of dollars, isn’t it? Are you saying that the taxi driver is my sugar daddy every time I take a taxi? What about the bus? I bet the bus is more expensive than the taxi. I took the bus every day when I was in high school. Are you saying that the bus driver was my sugar daddy in high school? I came to Nanjiang City by train, are you saying that the train operator is my sugar daddy? Wow, that’s very impressive. If I take a flight home the next time, are you going to accuse me of being the pilot’s sugar baby? Or the airline’s sugar baby?”

Laughter echoed across the campus as soon as Jiang Yao finished. Even the director laughed out loud and said, “Well, it seems that I was the bus driver’s sugar baby this morning.”

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!

There was inside her a growing anger that had yet to disappear. She had yet to vent. It was a need. One that may lead her to death’s door too, but if she died by this person’s hands, certainly, it would be in a quicker way. She just never thought that his revenge would come in the form he chose to give it. He was quite a… bewildering man. N/A: Smutty story with little plot. It contains reverse-rape, and maybe even rape?
